Chapter 15 - Chase The Bag

"Fine, he's very handsome but that's not the main focus. He's a businessman of some sort and he's in town for a few months and basically, he wants to parade me around with him whenever he goes out for his work; kinda like a date or as he put it, an escort," I told her.

"What kind of business does Mr Gorgeous do?" Ken asked, dialling down on the teasing a little bit.

"He didn't say but by the looks of things, he's a CEO of a big company or something like that. So…what do you think? Should I accept?" I asked, in need of her advice.

"It depends on if you want to! How much does this pay anyway?"

"He offered me a blank cheque,"

Kendra was drinking her juice when I answered her last question and she spat it all out in shock after hearing the answer. She was stunned to hear this and her opinion about accepting the job or not changed completely.

"Wait a minute! So, let me get this straight; you're not going to sleep with him, you're going to get to accompany him to fancy parties and meet a bunch of rich and powerful people, he's probably going to offer to pay for your new wardrobe because you're going to need less revealing clothes to go to such parties and you also get to choose how much he pays you?" She asked with a hint of disbelief because to her, it all sounded too good to be true.

"Well, yeah," I answered.

"Are you sure this man's not just trying to get some pussy from you because this is too good a deal?" Kendra asked with a raised brow.

"He's not trying to get in my drawers, Ken, and it's not completely up to me because he gave me a contract that stated certain conditions on my part and said that we could negotiate some sections that I'm not comfortable with," I informed her.

"Well, where's this contract? Let's look at it together, determine what's uncomfortable and get this sucker to pay us this money," She said excitedly.

"Us?" 

"Girl, you know what I mean," She said dismissively and gestured at me to go get the contract.

I got the contract and we looked through it together and Ken brought a few more stipulations to my attention that I had overlooked during my first reading. He had restricted me from doing a lot of things and it was really starting to seem like he wasn't buying my services but me entirely and I didn't like that at all. We marked a few more conditions on the contract and prepared a counter of our own. I knew he would call today and we'd probably meet up again so I got ready to keep my poker face and demand some changes to the contract.

Kendra had suggested that instead of waiting for him to call, I should call him instead and take the reins on this agreement. Turns out his assistant put her number among the files in the binder so I had a number to call. Kendra had also suggested that we milk this cow for all that it had and I was firmly on board. His sexual magnetism, intoxicating masculinity and seductive deep voice wasn't going to hypnotize me this time. Instead of him making me uncomfortable, I intended to do it to him. He wants a stripper for an escort? Well, he's about to get one that he can't handle.
